Representation of the functional distribution of CDSs encoded by the six replicons of A. salmonicida strain LFI1238. The bottom bar summarizes the functional distribution of degenerated genes from all six replicons. Colour coding for the CDSs based on a modified hierarchical protein class coding scheme of Monica Riley's [78] are: light blue, unknown function; red, information transfer; yellow, protection responses; green, transport and binding proteins; violet, adaptation; orange, cell division; plum, macromolecule metabolism; grey, macromolecule synthesis and modification; sky blue, amino acid biosynthesis; light turquoise, biosynthesis of cofactors; light green, central intermediary metabolism; light yellow, degradation of small molecules; pale blue, energy metabolism – carbon; pink, fatty acid biosynthesis; purple, nucleotide biosynthesis; light orange, cell envelope; blue, ribosome constituents; aqua, foreign DNA; lime, regulation; gold, miscellaneous.
